The Abyss is an ultra-minimal platform designed to provide you with a space to express your thoughts, no matter how deep or profound they may be. It's a place where you can release your innermost musings without any limitations or judgments. Dive into The Abyss and let your thoughts flow freely.

• Simplicity at its Core: The Abyss embraces minimalism. The focus is solely on your thoughts and words, without any distractions.

• Anonymity: Feel free to express yourself without revealing your identity. Your thoughts can be shared without any personal information attached.

• Unfiltered Expression: There are no constraints on the content you can share. Whether it's a fleeting idea, a profound realization, or an abstract concept, you can release it into The Abyss.

• No Social Interaction: The Abyss is not a social media platform. There are no likes, comments, or shares. It's a solitary space for your thoughts.

• Private and Secure: Your submissions are your own. We do not store personal information nor do we sell them, it's you and you only who owns your data.

The Abyss also has a new-sub-repo (If that make sense, hopefully), known as the Packages or if your feeling for something different, they are also called Weapons. These are typically plugins that are independent of The Abyss but do enhance it's experiance, currently I've published the first weapon of choice, Zen - an ultra(beautiful) platform to articulate your thoughts before plublishing it and while you could do this inside of The Abyss, Zen is designed to be more minimal w/ no distraction whatsover. OH, also - it's open-source <3

We will soon launch a space for developers to create their weapons and publish them!
